I have a small 3 cm meningioma of the frontal lobe area and at the same time my nose feels constantly blocked....an exam showed that my turbinates are badly swolen but my septum is not deviated. I also have a headache all the time behind my forehead. My doctor doesn't even think its' related to the meningioma, but when the nose feels more blocked the headache feels worse, it almost feels like my head has a sandbag sitting on top, and my sense of smell is bad. It kind of feels like a sinus headache but my sinuses are clear. It's been going on a long time now and my allergy testing was normal but my turbinates stay badly swolen all the time. There was a time when the lining of my nose appeared blood red and after anti biotics the redness when away and the head pain improved very slightly but still i have a continuious headache and blocked nose, almost like my head is stuffed full of wool.
